The Amino Aria 7X is a high-performance HEVC (H.265) HD client device designed to deliver seamless IPTV and OTT content with impressive processing power and bandwidth efficiency. Built to meet the demands of modern streaming environments, this device combines advanced encoding, compatibility with various codecs, and user-friendly deployment options, making it an effective solution for operators and end-users alike.
High-Performance Processing Power
At the heart of the Amino Aria 7x is a high-performance System-on-Chip (SoC) delivering 7000 DMIPs (Dhrystone Million Instructions Per Second), a measurement that highlights the device’s powerful computing capability. This SoC is based on a dual-core ARM-v8 CPU architecture, designed to handle high-demand tasks effortlessly. This level of processing enables the Aria 7X to support multiple applications and content streams without compromising quality, which is crucial for IPTV and OTT environments that require stable and uninterrupted service.
Codec and Format Versatility for Enhanced Streaming
The Amino Aria 7x offers extensive video and audio codec support that caters to the diverse needs of content providers and end-users. Among the supported codecs are HEVC (H.265), known for its high-efficiency video coding, and MPEG-4 AVC (H.264), a widely used standard that balances quality and compression. These codecs allow the Amino Aria 7x to deliver content in HD and beyond while reducing bandwidth requirements.
The device also supports Dolby Digital audio, which provides immersive sound quality, essential for an engaging viewing experience. This variety in codec support ensures that the Aria 7X can handle a broad spectrum of content formats, making it compatible with a wide range of broadcast and OTT content.
Comprehensive Audio and Video Output Options
With HDMI 2.0 digital output and Composite analog output options, the Aria 7X ensures compatibility with both modern and legacy display setups. HDMI 2.0 provides high-definition video output up to 2160p (4K) at 60 frames per second, delivering smooth, high-resolution content that meets the demands of today’s viewers. Meanwhile, the composite output option ensures that even users with older television models can enjoy IPTV and OTT services without needing additional equipment.
Bandwidth Efficiency with HEVC Encoding
One of the standout features of the Amino Aria 7x is its HEVC (H.265) encoding capability, which significantly reduces bandwidth usage, allowing content providers to serve high-definition content without overloading network resources. This efficiency is especially important in regions where bandwidth is limited or expensive, as HEVC can reduce bandwidth consumption by up to 50% compared to older standards like MPEG-4. This means that providers can deliver high-quality video with less data usage, lowering operational costs while maintaining a satisfying user experience.
Streamlined Deployment with Self-Install Wizard
To further simplify deployment, the Amino Aria 7x comes equipped with a self-install wizard that guides users through setup. This feature is particularly useful for operators aiming to reduce installation and support costs, as it allows end-users to set up the device independently with minimal technical assistance. This ease of installation minimizes customer frustration and enhances satisfaction, which can translate into better retention rates for service providers.
Powered by AminoOS for Seamless Integration
The Amino Aria 7x is powered by AminoOS, a versatile operating system developed by Amino that facilitates integration with existing middleware, DRM solutions, and network infrastructures. AminoOS supports various protocols, including multicast and MPEG-2, making it highly adaptable to different network environments. This compatibility with widely used middleware solutions also means that the Aria 7X can be integrated into existing IPTV setups, minimizing the need for costly infrastructure overhauls.
Enhanced Device Management with Amino Engage
All Amino devices, including the Amino Aria 7x, benefit from Amino Engage, a SaaS (Software as a Service) platform that streamlines device management and deployment. Amino Engage enables operators to monitor and manage devices remotely, reducing the need for on-site support. The platform also facilitates app updates, so users always have access to the latest features and functionalities. Moreover, Amino Engage provides tools to enhance customer support, making it easier for operators to assist users with technical issues and maintain high service quality.
Environmental Compliance and Power Efficiency
In terms of environmental compliance, the Aria 7X meets various regulatory standards such as FCC, CE, and RoHS. This ensures that the device adheres to safety and environmental guidelines, a critical factor for operators looking to expand globally or in regions with strict regulatory requirements. The Aria 7X is also designed with power efficiency in mind, with a maximum power consumption of just 7W. This low power draw makes it an energy-efficient choice, contributing to cost savings over time and aligning with eco-friendly practices.
